I may be the last person who really enjoys April Fools’ Day … maybe because I was already a fan of taking a moment to fact-check what you find on the internet. Copyblogger has a long tradition of celebrating the first of April with a bit of nonsense. Stefanie Flaxman stepped up this year with her announcement of our new content publication app, Pooblíche. I still think “If your content’s rubbish, it won’t let you publish” is our best tagline ever. On Tuesday, Brian Clark talked about using the Rule of Three to make your writing more memorable and engaging. (Note to self: Use the number three for my next list post.) And on Wednesday, we returned to shenanigans with a republish of my April Fools’ Day post from 2014, Announcing RealWriter. Over on the podcast, Robert Bruce joined us again to chat about a cornerstone practice that too many site owners forget about — and the many problems it solves when you take the time to get it right. But it is not this day. Enjoy your weekend, and if you saw a great April Fools post this week, share it with us in the comments!
